Baptist pastor fail

Baptist pastor Randy Robertson was busted spending hundreds of dollars in a strip club. It’s classic case of Christian hypocrisy. Watch the video, it’s hilarious.

For 6-weeks FOX 25 watched as Pastor Randy Robertson spent hour after hour at the strip club. So we walked in the strip club camera rolling. At first the pastor had little to say. He hid in the restroom and tried to take our microphone. We also went to his church to see if it would open its books to prove whether the pastor was spending church money on that stripper.

In this story, we can see many parallels to the stories involving Baptist clergy sex abuse. Here are just a few:

There is no effective oversight for the pastor. For months, pastor Robertson was able to spend many hours away from church duties while he frequented a strip club.

Pastor Randy Robertson resigned from the First Baptist Church of Anadarko. I find it interesting that no mention of the scandal is reported on the churches’ website. I also find it interesting that some members of the church expressed and objection to the reporters even investigating their pastor because it reflected poorly on the church. This is the reason abuse happens.

Wow what an idiot ! The video was entertaining though. Between getting caught, and then getting pulled over by the police, that had to be one bad day for him.

A real bad day. I'm surprised he did not try to kill himself.
Pastor's, eh!? You gotta love em! :)

But as you well know, the bible's full of passages to suit every dubious situation for these guys. Hmmm, I wonder if you could twist something out of this??......Oh, yeah here we go.... I'm amazed he didn't use the Mark 2:16-17 defense:

"When the teachers of the law who were Pharisees saw him eating with the "sinners" and tax collectors, they asked his disciples: "Why does he eat with tax collectors and 'sinners'? On hearing this, Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

So, the simple explanation was he was "ministering" to those wayward ladies, and ...and giving them money so they could...erm....quit their sinful jobs....yeah, that's the one! [whew, hope that one sticks! Otherwise, let's call it "research" like Fred Nile did (http://is.gd/fdyZG)]
